Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 7JustANumber6 Jack Morrison (@7JustANumber6) reported

    @SpectraIBeast He paused and took a breath. "Ana caught on quick. Gerard believed there was someone sabotaging the group from the inside. He was eliminated. Then Switzerland happened. We both died, so did Overwatch's problems." +

  • Zulqarnyan Zee (@Zulqarnyan) reported

    @foreplay Overwatch, League, CSGO, Valo all have the same issue.

  • JFR777 JFR (@JFR777) reported

    @charlieINTEL The problem is that mixed lobbies are unfair. It's not overpowered if everyone in the lobby uses it, but it is if it's just 75%. Overwatch seems to me the only crossplatform game that understood this.

  • Robotgeek2 Robotgeek (@Robotgeek2) reported

    @jazzmusicbum_2 @scottmccampbell @UrOrientalist Standard issue is 7 mags (210) rounds. And during tactics those are gone extremely quickly. Suppressive fire during bounding overwatch, suppressive fire when peeling, covering fire, actual aimed shots, it all adds up and you can quickly go dry.

  • cowhybrid dango (@cowhybrid) reported

    i hate overwatch i say as i start up the league client. soon i will close that one and switch to valorant. then i will wonder why i have anger management issues

  • conztelation (@conztelation) reported

    @WLFGRLMG i want it to play games like valorant n apex n overwatch without lag and i rlly need it to handle streaming / video and photo editing. my laptop rn cant handle more than csp and discord open after that it just goes kkbbgtt..

  • PRXJEK_ PROJEK (@PRXJEK_) reported

    @Naaely_ Heck, I don't even play Overwatch as much as I used to, but the problem persists because it is not exclusive to Overwatch. It's gaming in general. I get women who add me in games just straight up saying they added me because I didn't treat them differently. That's really sad. (2)

  • ExoticNeonCo2 ❁CO2❄︎ꪀꫀꪮꪀ❁🇺🇦 (@ExoticNeonCo2) reported

    LIKE WHATS THE POINT?? Is it because pros are on pc?? Because we suck?? It wasn't much of a problem to let console people to the overwatch 1 beta, what's the problem now?

  • reclaimedheart ─ - ̗̀ʷⁱⁿᵗᵉʳ ᵇʳᵉᵉᶻᵉ . ̖́- @New 📌 (@reclaimedheart) reported

    @toilemortelle ེ 〢 ❝ Overwatch was a thorn on my side, Its been a issue since the day I heard of them. And it seems this common Enemy will be an issue in the future, They are building up more people within their team, and that alone would make them unstoppable. So why the risks? ❞〢 ⋆

  • DeadFace1207 David (@DeadFace1207) reported

    @OverwatchGG And overwatch devs are like: not broken enough… op rework!!

  • Gothsalts Ed-lin Ring (@Gothsalts) reported

    one thing they never tell you about cyberpunk 2077 is how the hacking build is basically broken cyberwizardry having a cover-penetrating gun + the cyberware the highlights aggroed enemies is a build-agnostic OP strat too. just click on the red silhouettes with Buzzsaw/overwatch.

  • Masakiss1 Masakiss (@Masakiss1) reported

    So finally Horizon Lunar Colony and Paris are removed from Quick Play. These maps have long been very unpopular ones where many many players leave at the beginning. Removing contents isn’t the ideal solution for the issue especially at this content drought days though. #Overwatch

  • audrainer_ aud (@audrainer_) reported

    @Andriatic def contenders, in my many hours of overwatch ive rarely ever seen someone with contenders mercy plus i believe when contenders mercy was happening i believe there was a glitch with counting hours so only a small percent got it (?)

  • Crystallynah Crystal ₍⸍⸌̣ʷ̣̫⸍̣⸌₎ค (@Crystallynah) reported

    I'll be streaming Overwatch in a couple mins. I ran into some problems and a sneaky spider. I had to trap the spider and take it out.

  • SamTheLucioFan Sammie (@SamTheLucioFan) reported

    @cybuuorg Loved every issue. But the last one did it for me in terms of getting hyped up for the Overwatch 2 story

  • RealShayD Shay Springston (@RealShayD) reported

    Streaming! Fixed the issues I had with overwatch. Now you can see me go crazy nutso mode!

  • ttaysaa t (@ttaysaa) reported

    Even my team on Overwatch is telling me I’m the problem💔

  • tackogamma Isaack the 3D Guy 🇵🇷 (@tackogamma) reported

    Overwatch has its problems: Yes. Blizzard is horrible. We all know this. So that’s why it feels so wrong that I enjoy this game. I don’t buy boxes. I don’t buy credits. I’ve only ever bought a used copy of the game like 5 years ago.

  • HeAvYMeTaLGR Manos (@HeAvYMeTaLGR) reported

    @Tryantt Think that's a console level issue. Many games do that, some not at all, some more than the rest. It's weird though that the announcements were still working so I might be wrong. I.e. Overwatch for many stops working all the time till it starts doing that. Needs to restart it.

  • marinedorm tori uwi pls (@marinedorm) reported

    @cainnui @middtski @vampquintet i've actually tried it out before, i've tested out overwatch sfx edits, normal vlogging but the preview kept on lagging

  • _nedwardo nedwardo - COMMS OPEN - (@_nedwardo) reported

    @_dead_zero See I'd say the first problem is you're playing league but I'm here talking about Overwatch so I don't get much more ground to stand on

  • wickhelm wick🦂 (@wickhelm) reported

    @drlor4 I was having issues with overwatch a month ago and haven't checked since. but good looking out, doc

  • _Alt_Ending_ AlternateEnding (@_Alt_Ending_) reported

    @_IN_DARKNESS_ the problem is youre playing overwatch 2 at all

  • Dani82022824 Dani (@Dani82022824) reported

    @RisingBlur @ShayonBurman @Nibellion Tbh, doom and the evil within terms are talented, crash team is working on call of duty and they obviously suck when it comes to cod, overwatch team is making a lazy overwatch 1.5 Dishonoured is meh So they do have some talented studios but the majority are not

  • a_wild_zubat_ow anthony👾 (@a_wild_zubat_ow) reported

    @Flats_OW How do you think console players feel….I hear we don’t get the beta at all…..we are part of the player base too…and a big chunk of it also. If it’s the update thing well Xbox is going to own overwatch also they do express updates if that’s a issue for the beta

  • 2dJazz Majin 「O」bama @ #FightingTuesday 99 (@2dJazz) reported

    @PolarBair_ON @GoldenGoldy01FG 1) I got bad news for ya kid...those people exist in real life- in EVERYTHING. Sports? Academia? You ever boot up WoW/CS/Overwatch/LoL/Dota/SC? You think this is a fg issue or something? This is the nature of anything competitive. 2) your 2nd post is a complete ? from me

  • NSCSGaming NotSoCommonSense (@NSCSGaming) reported

    @popq2_ Honestly I don't know if I'd go as far as "best maps in all of gaming" tbh. I feel val, overwatch, and a few others have much better map design. I would say infinites problem is they are all decent but very boring. It's weird bcuz 343 actually can make good maps

  • LunaticMonkey23 Dellaith (@LunaticMonkey23) reported

    @OverwatchNaeri I don't complain about Overwatch much, so I've honestly never had issues with 2CP (maybe because I don't play ranked) so I will say, I'm actually gonna miss Hanamura and Temple of Anubis, some of my best games have been on TOA.

  • Java_jigga Full Volume Dr. Umar Video at the Staff Meeting (@Java_jigga) reported

    Really enjoying the fact that the new gundam game is literally just an exact overwatch clone because 1. It’s very funny and 2. I’m excited for it to have the exact same balancing problems as overwatch did

  • yoswole Yosel (@yoswole) reported

    If you give attention to these toxic people on Overwatch, you're a part of the problem
